According to an article in todays Washington Times, the California Supreme Court has ruled that those publishing untrue defamatory statements obtained from other sites (republishing) are not subject to liability for those actions. The original author of course could be subjected to liabilities.
The reality is that often the blog-o-sphere, or on-line publishing industry as it is becoming has a tendency to self correct over time, as Robert Scoble pointed out recently — at least I think he did but I cannot find it, so I substitute this thought instead …. There are advantages of being able to speak one’s mind and not face repercussions in most instances. I think this decision is a victory for those supporting free speech, even if that speech is not factually accurate.
